Hello Everyone,
Let me explain my project before i ask the all important question/
Currently we have around 80 signals(40 analog signals and 40 digital signals) going from the control hardware to a master PLC.
To optimize the complete hardware,I am planning to convert these signals to be transmitted digitally.
The distance between the PLC and the control hardware is about 5 meters
The cycle time of the PLC is 20 ms.The PLC can accept signals via profibus or ethernet.
Which protocol is better suited for this operation?
